Assembly question: screw too long
I'm carefully following the assembly instructions for my Mk3S, now working on the extruder assembly. Step 14 says to use two M3x40 screws to attach the extruder cover to the extruder body. It says they will stick out by 2 to 3 mm. In reality they stick out by about 12 mm.
This becomes a problem in step 19 where the extra screw sticking out prevents installation of the X Carriage.
I measured everything, I'm using the right parts in the right places per the instructions. Anybody know a way around this problem?

Ok, I figured it out. I forgot to add the Extruder Cover. 🤫
